by Orion Poplawski
I don't like using /var/tmp. If there are better ways to send git
patches, let me know.

Manually switching to real root from eshell
by Mohammed_Khan@Dell.com
Hi folks,
I have been playing around with learning how initramfs switches to the
os.img in the squashfs.img
I tried to use the eshell kernel cmdline param and then run
/sbin/run-init various ways but I havent been able to get it to switch
to real root and boot correctly.
Of course, if I type exit and let the /init script continue, it boots
through just fine!
I would appreciate if someone can give me pointers on how I can trigger
this from eshell correctly.
Thanks,
Moe k

Networkmanager anomaly
by John Lucas
I am experiencing a very strange anomaly with the Fedora 7 KDE Live CD on my
Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop.
NetworkManager works fine with the wired interface (Broadcom 440), and the
Wifi connection works fine (Intel 3945) when I use WPA security (pre-shared
key with Linksys 802.11g AP), but is does *not* work correctly when
attempting to connect to a completely OPEN access point (DLink 802.11b AP
with no encryption).
By circumventing NetworkManager I can connect to the OPEN AP just fine. When
I revert to Fedora Core 6 (installed on HD) everything works fine (including
NetworkManager with both WPA and OPEN AP). So the problem is experienced
only when using Fedora 7 with NetworkManager associating with my OPEN AP.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Hello
How, if it's possible, can I add memtest functionality to a livecd?
